VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENTS

The club’s preference is that everyone be active in helping maintain the club physically and socially through required volunteer hours.  Each membership must complete one of the following:

-Serve 5 hours throughout the season.* 

OR

-Pay a volunteer waiver fee of $125 with their dues signifying that they will not be volunteering. 

*If the fee is not paid with dues it is our understanding that you will be serving your hours.  Failure to do so increases the upkeep costs and work load for everyone else. If you decide to pay the volunteer fee later in the season the fee will be increased to $150.   All volunteer fees must be paid by 10/01/24.  If you are not up to date with your volunteer requirement by this date you will not be eligible for membership the following year.  

If you have a single or couple membership, and all patrons on your membership are 70 years old, or older, you may email the club to apply for a volunteer requirement waiver.
